The chosen 13 words:
fractured illusory topaz tones moon ebb scales
fluttering signals goddesses fame breath words
Fractured mind illusory in nature
Shining like topaz in tones unflattering
Fleetingly akin to goddesses’ overtures
Of moon ebbing in its shine fuming
Scales of measure signals lack of words
To describe the true feelings and emotions
A breath of fame in keeping with a thought
With a fluttering of anger and innocence
Venturing onwards it can only be proverbial
A provocative proposal awaiting consideration
A twinge of fate can lead to a likely tussle
To yearn for a love seemingly out of turn

Lots of emotions through and through as a yearning sure comes due
ReplyDelete'Scales of measure signals lack of words' ~ real love needs only to express itself. Passionate write!
ReplyDeleteVery emotional and a pleasure to read.
ReplyDeleteI don't have problems with your sort of comment box, but the drop down ones I do.
Thanks for the comment.

what a gem - both pen and picture ~
ReplyDeleteGreat write...I really love the third stanza
ReplyDeletenice fluidity in your words and images in this hank....
ReplyDeletei wonder if we will ever be able to fully articulate our love...
we try with snippets and baubles...
fate can sometimes play a spoilsport and sometimes it can do wonders!
ReplyDeleteThis does give the impression of yearning... and some impatience
ReplyDeleteTo yearn for that love, nicely expressed Hank ~
ReplyDeleteThe yearning is real and deeply felt,
ReplyDeleteElizabeth
Whether intentional or coincidental, the alliteration in this piece is stunning.
ReplyDeleteI've lived that last stanza, Hank. So good to read you.
ReplyDeleteWhen trying to describe our emotions -- especially love -- it can be a challenge. We make think it sounds like nothing but a bunch of "sound and fury". I read both beauty and frustration in your words.
